When my Ziggy went to the groomers for a kennel cut, they always check the animals anal glands. She did have a sight discharge. She used to drag her bottom on my carpet a lot usually to help clean her bottom but it may have also been because it felt bad. Now I've noticed that she seems so much happier and she's much more loving towards me. She now tries to sleep by my pillow at night and she never used to do this before.

Her allergy seems better this morning.. That's really had me worried but I felt brave enough to give her some of that diet food this morning.. LOL!.....and I noticed, NOBODY ate it.. I just have to get some clippers and keep her girlie bits shaved, that may help.... I am amazed at how "pronounced" her anal glands are right now. I just have to remember when she starts getting mad at her tail to check her "there".

Laura, one thing that I forgot to mention. When I had to put Ziggy on a diet, I was still able to use the food that I was already feeding her. I just had to feed her mainly canned food and only about 1/4 of a cup of dry food a day. This worked out well because she loves canned food. Canned food has much less calories in it than the dry food does. I don't know if Caramella likes canned food or not but you may want to talk to your vet about this option. This diet really helped my Ziggy to lose the weight that she needed to. Now I try not to give her too much dry each day. Good luck.

kak, Caramella don't like can food at all for some reason. She will come running and beg more than the others but once it is put down, she walks off, not interested! Funniest thing I ever saw.. She BEGS! BEGS! BEGS! Then walks away unimpressed.

Her sneezing and other ailments are a lot better today. I have only heard her sneezeing a few times.
